BREAKING: MONSTER TORNADO‼️30 MINUTE Touchdown, 9 Miles Long, 1700ft WIDE‼️Devastation in the US

Oh my. Oh my god.

>> Overnight, a massive tornado barreling

through the rural city of Enid, almost

70 mi north of Oklahoma City.

>> It was weird. You could feel the

tornado. You could feel it in your

chest. It was a rumble that I mean, I'm

never going to forget this because it,

you know, when they say it sounds kind

of like a freight train, that's true.

It's kind of a nightmare right at the

moment there.

>> The footage that I'm about to show you

was really breaking my heart when I saw

it for the first time because it's

absolutely horrifying. Horrifying. Hi

everyone. Tornadoes

are wrecking havoc again in the US. And

I want to show you what happened in

Oklahoma with uh in Enid. A tornado was

hitting that town and the destruction is

really really bad. So, I'm going to show

you that monster of a tornado, but I'm

also going to show you the damage. And

it was an EF4 tornado. While there's

reports that it was even an EF5 tornado,

literally like the highest on the scale,

um, because the damage looks so extreme,

but officially right now, I want to say

that the Enid tornado is rated EF4,

which is really, really bad already.

We've seen homes destroyed and blown

away from an EF2 tornado. So,

preliminary EF4 right now with estimated

winds around 170 to 175 miles per hour.

That's 274 to 282 km per hour. Could it

still be upgraded? Technically, yes,

because tornado ratings can change after

deeper damage surveys, but you should

not call it an EF5 right now until the

National Weather Service will upgrade

it. reporting right now says um from the

NWS survey rated at EF4

and that's why we will stick with this

in this video and if you could do me a

favor since we're right into it please

give it a like and hype it doesn't cost

you anything but it helps my channel.

Thank you so much. So violent violent

tornado just tore through Enid Oklahoma

and not a week spin not a shortlift

funnel. We have to talk about this what

it did and how long what the stretch

was. So

it carved a damaged path of about 9

miles. That's 14.5 kilometers. And at

its widest, that's also important. It

was roughly 500 yards. That's half a

kilometer. This is huge. And I just

can't imagine what people go through

that were in the path of this tornado.

When when you see what happened to your

home and and for me, if you have

animals, it's even worse cuz where do

you put large animals? You can't take

them in a storm shelter. So, my heart

goes out to everyone who lives in

tornadoprone areas. I don't know how you

do it. I have the utmost respect for you

and I I hope and pray for your safety

because this year has already been very

very bad with tornadoes in areas and

states where you wouldn't think that

they would have that many, right? But

really almost half a kilometer wide and

it also hit near the Vance Air Force

Base. Um it has crossed parts of the

Enid area and it has damaged around 40

homes, has injured at least 10 people.

But the most shocking part is this. And

not shocking in a shocking in a positive

way. I have to say early reports said no

fatalities. And for an EF4 tornado, I

want to make that clear. That is almost

unbelievable. So I hope I hope guys

let's keep our fingers crossed that this

is the final verdict. No fatalities

because EF4 is in a violent category.

Absolutely freaks me out. I once saw a

horse ranch in North Carolina blown away

by an EF3. And I'm talking about a steel

indoor riding arena that was completely

gone. House destroyed, barns destroyed.

It was horrible. So EF4, it's even more

frightening. This type of tornado

definitely tears homes apart, collapses

walls, uh, strips trees, throws vehicles

around, and and really can turn, and

that's another danger factor, ordinary

debris into weapons if you're standing

around unsheltered.

And Enit in Oklahoma, it's not a tiny

dot on the map. This is a city of around

50,000 people in north central Oklahoma

right basically in that part of the

United States where these spring storms

can become monsters. Um basically when

the conditions are right when the

atmosphere lines up the wrong way we

have to say. So the that specific

tornado developed during a severe

weather outbreak across the central

plains. We had multiple tornadoes that

were reported across the region and that

Enid storm became one of the most

destructive. Um the tornado started

south of Enid around 8:13 p.m. and then

it moved to Vance Air Force Base and

Highway 81 and by about just 8:25 p.m.

the situation was serious enough for a

tornado emergency. And that wording

really really matters because a tornado

warning means a tornado is possibly is

possible or already indicated. A tornado

emergency means a confirmed destructive

tornado is threatening lives right now.

This is what you need to know. That's

the moment where you do not look

outside. You do not stand by the window.

You do not try to drive away. You get

underground. underground or into the

strongest interior shelter that you have

immediately. And in Enid, that quick

decision may be why um right now we have

a zero loss rate of people. So the

damage survey that is out right now

shows us why the tornado was rated EF4.

So the National Weather Service uses the

enhanced Fuja scale. Well, this is how

it's called, which estimates wind speed

based on damage. So, EF0 is weak. EF1 is

moderate. EF2 is significant. I've seen

bad stuff with EF2 and EF3 is severe.

Yes, it is. EF4 is violent and EF5 is

the top level. This is like doomsday

scenario. So, EF4 damage means winds

between 166 and 200 miles per hour.

That's 267 to 322 kilometers per hour.

So the Enit tornado that we have rated

at 170 to 175 miles per hour was if we

look at that on the lower end of the EF4

scale, but lower end EF4 is like still

catastrophic as the images show us. And

at that speed, I want to make that

clear. The wind is not just pushing

against the buildings, it's ripping them

open. And once it has access into the

building, right? It lifts up everything

and destroys it. Roofs can be removed,

exterior walls can fail, trees can be

debarked, power poles can snap, cars and

large objects can be moved, and anything

picked up by the wind becomes part of

the tornado. Can you build better to

protect yourself against a tornado? Yes.

The wood homes not really ideal, right?

Once the roof's gone, once a window is

cracked. But concrete homes is the

better option. We have brick homes. If

brick homes, they might still lose the

roof, but you don't see that complete

devastation, right? But the only

structure that can really protect you

that doesn't get much damage. I have

done a lot of investigation into this is

if you build a concrete dome structure.

But do you want to like in an in an in

Arctic style igloo dome, right? And and

the the cost to build that. So you have

to weigh in. Um certainly I think um

maybe find a way to help people to

rebuild stronger, safer, right? But I

know it's not that easy because it costs

a lot of money. But problem is this kind

of tornado can

move cars and large objects and

basically anything that's picked up by

the wind becomes part of the tornado

inside the tornado. And that's why

tornado damage often looks like it's

like an explosion, but um it's not an

explosion. It's it's rotating wind. It's

pressure changes and debris impacts

from hitting structures from different

directions in seconds. So problem also

this tornado struck late. It struck at

night which might makes everything more

dangerous. Right? So at that time people

were probably not asleep yet but maybe

you cannot clearly see the funnel
